Rhinoplasty Before & After: Shortened the Nose and Corrected a Deviated Septum

Rhinoplasty #280

Our beautiful 28-year-old patient is seen one month after functional and cosmetic rhinoplasty surgery. Her nasal obstruction was due to a deviated nasal septum and external nasal valvular collapse. From an aesthetic standpoint, the patient didn’t like that her nose stuck out too far, was too long, and was associated with a dorsal hump and a droopy tip, especially when smiling. We derojected her nose, narrowed her nose, shortened her nose, corrected her deviated nasal septum, and strengthened her external nasal valves with lateral crural extension grafts. You can still see swelling in the lower third of her nose, which is normal only one month postoperative. We are beyond grateful that she has allowed us to share her photographs.

Rhinoplasty Before & After: A Less Projected + Narrower Nasal Appearance

Rhinoplasty #279

These updated before and after photos are one year following rhinoplasty surgery in our beautiful patient. Before surgery, you can see that she had an overprojected nasal profile appearance. That means her bridge and tip stuck out too far. This was associated with a wide nasal appearance and a droopy nasal tip, worse with smiling. We just saw her at her anniversary, and we are all thrilled. You can see a less distracting, less projected, narrower, and more feminine nasal appearance that does not have any stigmata of previous rhinoplasty surgery. I am so grateful that she allowed us to post her photos.

Rhinoplasty Before & After: Corrected Nasal Obstruction & an Overprojected Tip

Rhinoplasty #278

Our beautiful 22 year old patient is seen before and 1 year after functional and cosmetic rhinoplasty surgery. Her nasal obstruction was from a severely deviated nasal septum, and enlarged turbinates. She was also unhappy with her over projected nasal profile appearance - that means that her tip and bridge protruded too far. You can see a less projected, less distracting, and more feminine nasal appearance, and she is breathing normally after surgery. We are grateful that she has allowed us to post her photos!

Rhinoplasty Before & After: Addressed an Overprojected Nasal Appearance

Rhinoplasty #278

Our beautiful high school student is seen before and one year after rhinoplasty surgery performed in our practice. She was mostly concerned by her overprojected nasal profile appearance—her nose simply stuck out too far and was distracting. She is thrilled with her smaller and more feminine nasal appearance, and she is confident heading off to college in August.

Rhinoplasty Before & After: Narrower Bridge, Refined Tip, and Improved Breathing

Rhinoplasty #277

Our handsome teenage patient is seen before and one year after functional and cosmetic rhinoplasty surgery. He had a severely deviated nasal septum that was causing severe nasal obstruction, and he was unhappy with his wide nasal appearance, dorsal hump, and droopy tip. He also had severely enlarged turbinates, likely due to allergies, which further contributed to his severe nasal obstruction. His surgery consisted of nasal narrowing, dorsal reduction, tip lifting, septoplasty, and turbinate reduction. The goals of male rhinoplasty surgery are to improve breathing while creating a less distracting and masculine nasal appearance. We are beyond grateful that our handsome patient has allowed us to post his photographs.
